NO BAKE CHOCOLATE OATMEAL COOKIES
Ingredients:
1 stick butter
1/4 cup cocoa
1/2 cup milk
2 cups sugar
1 tbs. vanilla
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 cups rolled oats
Combine the butter, cocoa, milk, sugar, vanilla and peanut butter into a 2-quart saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 1 minute. Add oats and mix well. Remove from heat.
Normally, you would drop by spoonfulls onto parchment paper and serve. For what you want, spread them into a buttered cake pan and serve as no-bake desert bars.
Here's an alternative no-bake cookie that has significant WOW-Factor, and is my favorite of the three recipes her, though all are very good..
Butterscotch and Bacon No-Bake Bars
Ingredients:
1 stick butter
1/2 cup evaporated milk
2 cups brown sugar
1 tbs. vanilla
1/2 lb. crisp bacon bits
3 cups rolled oats, or rolled barley (the barley is a healthier grain and is indistinguishable from rolled oats)
1/2 tsp. salt
Make the crispy bacon and crumble it. Set it aside.
Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the brown sugar, salt, and vanilla. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the milk, again stirring in completely. Add the remaining ingredients. Spread in a buttered cake pan and let cool, or drop by tbs. onto a parchment lined sheet pan.
Trust me, people go nuts over the flavors of butterscotch and bacon. No fridge necessary, and will keep for hours.
German-Chocolate No-Bake Cookies
This recipe was discovered by accident while I was making a German-Chocolate cake. I made the icing,and accideVanilla No-Bake Cookies
1 c Sugar
3 Egg yolks; slightly beaten
¼ cup milk
1 ts Vanilla
1/2 c Butter
1 cup rolled oats
1 1/3 c Coconut
1 cup Chopped pecans
Combine sugar, egg yolks, butter and vanilla. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, add coconut and pecans. Cool and beat occasionally until spreading consistency.
ntly left out the required can of milk. As the icing was quickly hardening when I removed it from the heat, I dropped it like no-bake cookies onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. The cookies were delicious.
Hope that helps.
